The best restaurants serving British food in High Peak East Midlands

Having tried most of the eating places in the village this is our go to place in Castleton for lunch, with the Derbyshire oatcakes being our particular favourites. The welcome is second to none. Claire and Liz are both so friendly and however busy they are they always stop for a chat. The place is spotlessly clean and the food is fab with a good choice of regular items and a very tempting display of savouries and cakes. Highly recommended by us.

Our first visit to Deacons Bank. We knew we wouldn’t be disappointed. Simon is the most talented chef I have met. A visit DB is a must for every foodie. We will be back again soon. Thank you Simon and the team at Deacons Bank.

We’ve visited hundreds of coffee shops around the country over the years and tried numerous cakes and desserts. I can say without reservation that the Apple and almond cake and Bakewell tart were the two nicest we’ve ever tasted. What a little gem of a coffee shop. Cheerful and welcoming staff and to top it all they’re dog friendly.

Lovely little place with inside and outside tables, next to shop in quiet old arcade opposite the Opera House. Superior food with a local flourish, and Buxton Pudding Emporium shop next door run by same people. Not fast food, quality comes with care and attention which takes time, so don't rush, enjoy the flavours and the quiet location.

We went on a Saturday and was disappointment as when we were going to order we were told we couldn't have coffee and cake as if was lunchtime and we had to order a full meal. We had been at this time of three previous occasions at the same time - booking by telephone and NOT been told that as it was lunchtime we had to have a full main meal. So was very disappointed as I only meet up with my sisters/family once a month (there was 8 of us) and this is the handiest to their homes so we got up and left. When taking telephone bookings for a lunchtime they need to advise customers of their choices!!! Subsequently we will not be going back!!!!

We stayed at the Lee Wood Hotel for 4 days and the stay was perfect, staff were brilliant. We only ate one night but wished we had eaten there every night as the foor was excellent. Certainly breakfast was plentiful and the best breakfast for a long time

Dropped by for a swift pint. Great place for well kept real ale - the Abbeydale was on form.

Absolutely fantastic food here. Really good portion sizes and very very tasty. Really good prices also.

Wonderful atmosphere, friendly staff, delicious food, appropriate prices

Great food that might seem a little pricey but it's worth it. Ice cream milkshakes are amazing. The only down point is the wait time but you are warned when you order. Nice seating area outside to wait in too.

Didn't eat here just went for a pint after chrome hill... What a loverly spot in the sun... Food looked good that was being served.. Staff were friendly

Cask and Kitchen is a delightful American-style restaurant that captures the essence of comfort food. With its cozy ambiance featuring rustic wooden decor and warm lighting, it offers a welcoming atmosphere perfect for casual dining. The menu boasts a variety of classic dishes, from juicy burgers topped with house-made pickles to flavorful Kebabs. We started with Pork Belly and Salt and Pepper Calamri , which were a hit, and finished with a classic Tenessee Kebab to bring back nostalgic memories. The service was attentive and friendly, adding to the overall enjoyable experience. Whether you're craving a hearty meal or just a comforting dessert, Cask and Kitchen is a must-visit for anyone looking to indulge in American favorites.

Amazing location. In the middle of nowhere. Food was delicious, and the service was outstanding. Prices were very reasonable. would highly recommend. We will be definitely visiting again. Lots for the kids to do too while you’re eating.

Lovely place to sit out in the sun at the front of the pub. Didn’t eat but food looked good. Friendly staff.
